Sending this out again, as it appears that some folks got the post, but not the link. Apologies.
Another Curioustorian puzzle: Round Barn Now Gone
Round barns have a special charm.
This was a round barn near the intersection of Academy Road in Union Village and Rte. 132.
But happily, there are still two nearby: in Strafford, VT and Piermont, NH,
and many more throughout both Vermont and New Hampshire.
To learn more about Norwich's barns, see the excellent Norwich Barn Survey from 2021.

The Curioustorian
On our family homestead where I grew up in Putney, VT, there was a round silo just like the one in your lead photo, toward the back end of the barn—it sat on a concrete ring foundation. I was quite small at the time, but remember it was leaning & in danger of collapse. My older brother Peter liked to recount how he & Dad tried to pull it down with my grandmother's Buick Sedan. "We climbed up and hooked rope around one of the iron bands near the top. Dad drove away, and at the end of the rope, it lifted the car off the ground.”
We can study one inside and out at Shelburne Farms:
